July 15, Halloween.

At this time, Luozhi took Adi Mu Luo'an to kneel in front of his parents' graves to place food, burn incense and candles, and burn paper ingots according to local customs.

Adi Luoan was too young, the five-year-old child was so thin and short that he looked like a three-year-old, his hair was unkempt like a magpie's nest, and he dragged the hem of his sister's clothes in his hand and watched Sister Ah arrange the offerings.

A pair of big black eyes stared intently at the two white-flour steamed buns placed in front of the grave, and Sister Ah said that as long as she knelt quietly and went home, she could eat one of them.

Luozhi put the sacrifice and looked up at the words engraved on the simple wooden tablet, depressed, his heart fluctuated, he traveled from modern times to ancient times, I don't know if the grandparents sent the white-haired people to the black-haired people's heart-rending grief can they survive?

Luozhi thought of his modern relatives, and thought of the ancient times he was unfamiliar with, and his heart was sad and afraid, his nose was sour, and tears rippled.

"Sister, what's wrong with you?" , Adi Luoan looked at her sister in panic, with tears in her poor eyes.

Luo Zhi wiped away her tears with her sleeve, and with a warm smile on her lips, she stroked her brother's little head. Looking back at the wooden monument, my mood calmed down a little.

No matter how sad I am, I can't go back, not to mention that I have occupied the body of other people's daughters, and I have died, so what is there to be afraid of? Only by taking good care of this old, weak, sick and disabled family should they be divided.

She silently kowtowed to the grave three times, no matter what, from today onwards, she is the daughter, granddaughter, and sister of this family.

Luo'an also learned from Sister Ah to kowtow three times, Luo Zhi touched his little head approvingly, and the little man felt that Sister A's mood had sunny, and a bright smile appeared on her thin palm-sized little face.

The two sisters and brothers burned the paper ingots, put away the food and carried it in the bamboo basket, and Luozhi carried the younger brother down the mountain slowly.

Mujia Village was silent in the morning light, and occasionally a few dogs barked from the village. Luozhi came down from the mountain path with his brother on his back, and saw his grandfather squatting on the ground with his back on his back waiting for them.

Grandpa's white-haired man made the black-haired man uncomfortable, and sent the two brothers and sisters to the bottom of the grave mountain, and they have been waiting for them at the foot of the mountain.

"Grandpa", Luo Zhi walked a few steps quickly to meet him.

Old man Mu took his little grandson and hugged him to his chest, and at this moment, Luo An fell asleep on his sister's back, and when he was hugged by his grandfather, he muttered that he wanted to eat white flour steamed buns, but his eyes couldn't be opened.

The three of them went straight home without saying a word, and Luo Zhi carefully looked at the courtyard of this dilapidated house after entering the courtyard gate, after all, this is the place where she will live and die in this era in the future.

The more she looked at it, the more cold her heart became, she had been groggy and half-awake and half-asleep before, and she hadn't left her room before she had time to take a good look. Today, I can be regarded as knowing what the four walls of the house are, the tiles do not block the rain, and the walls do not shelter from the wind. The only bright spot is estimated to be that the courtyard of the house is large enough, and the big nan tree in the yard grows luxuriantly and lushly, adding a touch of color to this dilapidated courtyard.

The courtyard walls of every house in Mujia Village are very low, Luozhi stood on tiptoe and looked into the distance, and then looked at the neighbors, she sighed deeply, her family's economic conditions in this village are definitely not good, and they are so poor that they are tinkling.

"Luozhi, come in," Grandpa called her in the hall.

Luozhi took out the contents of the bamboo basket and took it in his hand, and hung the bamboo basket on the wooden hanging on the mud wall and entered the house.

Luo'an was placed on a bamboo bed by Grandpa and slept soundly.

"Today is the fifteenth day of the monthly big market in Ji'an Town, your grandfather has made some bamboo products in the past few days when you are sick, and grandpa has eaten breakfast and gone to the market, you are at home to take care of your family, and you are optimistic about your brother."

Most of the people in Mujia Village make a living from farming, and there are also some people who know how to craft when they are not busy with farm work, making some bamboo products, eating, and selling farm vegetables to subsidize their families when they are not busy.

Luo Zhi originally wanted to follow Grandpa to see the market, and by the way, to see if there was any way to make money, but when she thought that she had just passed through, she was afraid of revealing her feet, and it was absolutely impossible for her to leave her brother at home alone, so she swallowed the words that came to her mouth.

"Grandpa, you can go to the market with peace of mind, I will definitely be optimistic about the family and my brother", Luo Zhi looked serious.

Old Man Mu looked at his little granddaughter with some surprise, since he got better, this child has lived a lot more, and his words have been clear and clear, and he used to be less timid and shy.

The grandfather and grandson worked together, Luozhi made breakfast, and the old man hurried to organize the things in the market, and after breakfast, he set off for Ji'an Town before the sun came out.

Luozhi grew up in the rural grandparents' parents, and only went to live with her parents when she was in high school, and she was a good hand at housework. She found the place where the rice jar was placed according to the memory of the original owner, opened the rice jar, saw that the rice jar was almost bottoming out, and took a bamboo tube to hold the rice and take a closer look, this rice is different from modern fine rice, but half rice and half chaff are mixed, which is much more broken than refined rice.

Luozhi didn't have time to think about it, Grandpa was in a hurry to go out, and he couldn't waste time by grinding.

There is a lot of firewood in the stove room, and the stove is connected to two pots, one pot can cook rice, and the other pot can be used for hot water and stir-frying.

Luozhi Mari lit a fire, put a few sticks of coarse wood in the stove, poured the washed and skimmed chaff rice into the pot and added water to cook the porridge, looked around the kitchen, saw a pile of old pumpkins in the corner, she took out a peeled and seeded one, washed it and cut it into pieces, and the porridge boiled and added to the pot to cook together.

The pumpkin porridge was simmering on the stove on low heat, and she turned around and went to the vegetable patch behind the house, where the backyard was very large and made a vegetable garden. In the seventh month of the lunar calendar, the vegetable field is green, a bunch of leeks, water spinach, beans, eggplants, cucumbers are full of eyes, the growth is gratifying, a gust of wind blows, bringing a little soil and the fragrance of green leaves.

At least the air here is not polluted, and the fruits and vegetables eaten are absolutely organic and green.

Luozhi couldn't help but hum a little song briskly, isn't this the rural life of his modern dream?

She pinched a large handful of tender water spinach, picked a few large eggplants, and stir-fried them with pumpkin porridge.

A pot is gurgling with pumpkin porridge, a pot is frying vegetables, and the stove room is a busy scene, and the aroma of food wafts out of the wooden window.

The old man cleaned up the bamboo in the yard, listened to the little granddaughter humming a little song happily, and then looked at the little grandson sleeping on the bamboo bed, and felt that life was not so difficult.

After breakfast, Mr. Mu carried the burden and left, saying that he would arrive home in the evening.

Luozhi closed the courtyard door, saw that Ah Di slept soundly, fed the chickens and ducks with vegetable leaves, packed up the dirty clothes and went to the river to wash.

The gate of Old Man Mu's house was opened from the inside, and a little girl about ten years old walked out with a wooden basin, the girl was wearing a blue gown, a pair of gray pants underneath, and two crooked and oblique buns (the young lady didn't know how to tie the ancient people's hair) The bun was tied with hemp rope.

The girl was dressed so plainly and shabby, but she looked very delicate, although the face of the melon seeds was a little malnourished and sallow, but it couldn't cover her good color, especially the eyes, which were big and black, and they were full of aura.

Walking all the way to the river, many people in the village looked at her in amazement, and when she walked by, they pointed behind her back and whispered. Luozhi's face was calm.

Ah Di told her that everyone thought she was dead, but they didn't think she was alive, and this resurrection of the dead would always arouse the interest and peeps of others, she straightened her waist and came to the river to wash her clothes without hurrying.

Luozhi squatted down, a delicate and thin face was reflected on the surface of the river with a steady flow, and a pair of eyes were dark and big, déjà vu, oh, I remembered, and Adi Luoan's eyes were like this.

Luozhi stared blankly at her reflection in the water, which was completely different from her single eyelid face in her previous life, she reached out and touched it, it was really herself. God finally gave himself a little benefit for crossing.

"Luozhi, you're really sick. My little girl came home and told me, I still don't believe it! Sister-in-law Luo, who was across the riverbank, danced with a mallet and beat her clothes and made a "poof" sound, and spoke to Luozhi in a loud voice.

"Sister-in-law Luo, I'm really fine." Luozhi put soap beans on the dirty clothes, and also took the mallet to beat the clothes, the thin arms were raised high and then fell on the clothes, and the arms were numb in a few minutes, she gritted her teeth and continued to beat, her face was full of internal flow, so I miss the washing machine...

"Luozhi, you raise your hands so high, don't say that you can't beat it clean, just the thin fabric of this summer clothes, it will be broken in a few strokes", a girl next to her also squatted to wash clothes, her face was white and clean, and she showed Luozhi while talking.

Luozhi adjusted the height and used dexterity, not to mention, the arms were much more comfortable and comfortable.

"Little sister, thank you!" The other party looked at her puzzled.

Luozhi immediately reacted to herself, she used modern language, and they couldn't understand it.

"Thank you, sister". Luo Zhi said with a smile and baring his teeth.

"This kid is getting along a little better after he gets well"

"It's not, I used to hide from my little family when I saw people, so it's much more pleasing to the eye......"

"It is estimated that she survived with the blessing of her father who died early"

“………”

Luozhi listened to these aunts talking about themselves in front of him, and he didn't take it seriously, and more than 100 families in this Mujia Village gathered to live together, and whoever had something happened would be used as a conversation after dinner.

Luozhi was careful that his brother woke up and couldn't find him, so he washed his clothes with his hands and feet, and after saying goodbye to these gossip aunts, he went home with a wooden basin.

Wash off the washed clothes and hang them on bamboo poles to dry, the sun shines through the leaves of the big nan tree, and the courtyard is quiet.

"Yo, isn't this Luozhi? Why, the illness healed so quickly? Didn't your grandpa say that you can't do it anymore, and ask the kid from the sixth aunt's family to give you your life? Look at your life, it can be seen that your grandfather is full of lies! A strange voice sounded outside the courtyard wall, breaking the silence of the courtyard.
